[0022] As briefly mentioned above, content sharing is one of the most common interactive features of internet content. Traditionally, users need to edit and process media content before sharing it. This process can be time-consuming, potentially reducing the motivation for some users to share content.

[0023] An embodiment of the present disclosure proposes a solution for content sharing. According to the solution, a sharing request for target media content (e.g., picture content, video content, audio content, or a combination of such content) can be received. Furthermore, the target shared content associated with the target media content can be controlled to be published based on the sharing request. Such target shared content may include media content generated based on the target media content independently of the user editing operation. In addition, the target shared content may include a first media content screen, wherein the first media screen is generated by applying a preset style to a second media screen in the target media content.

[0024] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users to quickly share target media content without editing, and can automatically generate a screen of the shared content based on the screen of the content to be shared. This can greatly improve the convenience of user content sharing and increase user enthusiasm for content sharing.

[0025] Various example implementations of this solution are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Sample Environment

[0027] FIG1 shows a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. As shown in FIG1 , the example environment 100 may include an electronic device 110 .

[0028] In this example environment 100, electronic device 110 may run an application 120 that supports content sharing. Application 120 may be any suitable type of application for content sharing, examples of which may include, but are not limited to, video applications, social applications, and editing applications. User 140 may interact with application 120 via electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices.

[0029] In the environment 100 of FIG. 1 , if the application 120 is in an active state, the electronic device 110 may present an interface 150 for supporting content sharing through the application 120 .

[0030] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 communicates with the server 130 to enable the provision of services for the application 120. The electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal or portable terminal, including a mobile phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a media computer, a multimedia tablet, a handheld computer, a portable game terminal, a VR / AR device, a personal communication system (PCS) device, a personal navigation device, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an audio / video player, a digital camera / camcorder, a positioning device, a television receiver, a radio broadcast receiver, an e-book device, a gaming device or any combination thereof, including accessories and peripherals of these devices or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also support any type of interface for the user (such as a "wearable" circuit, etc.).

[0031] The server 130 may be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system consisting of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. For example, the server 130 may include a computing system / server such as a mainframe, an edge computing node, a computing device in a cloud environment, and the like. The server 130 may provide background services for the application 120 that supports virtual scenes in the electronic device 110.

[0032] A communication connection may be established between the server 130 and the electronic device 110. The communication connection may be established in a wired or wireless manner. The communication connection may include, but is not limited to, a Bluetooth connection, a mobile network connection, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection, a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) connection, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server 130 and the electronic device 110 may implement signaling interaction through the communication connection between the two.

[0033] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0034] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Sample content sharing

[0036] The following describes an example content sharing process according to some embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with Figures 2A to 2F. Figures 2A to 2F illustrate example interfaces according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Such example interfaces may be provided, for example, by electronic device 110 shown in Figure 1. Specifically, electronic device 110 may utilize, for example, a hosted application 120 to present such an example interface.

[0037] First, referring to FIG. 2A , FIG. 2A illustrates a display interface 200A for target media content 210. Interface 200A may include a content presentation area for presenting target media content 210. As described above, such target media content may include, for example, image content, video content, audio content, and / or a combination thereof. It will be appreciated that the display interface may be a display interface for media content published by a user, or a display interface for media content published by other users.

[0038] As shown in FIG2A , the interface 200A may include a sharing control 215. When the sharing control 215 is triggered (eg, clicked), the electronic device 110 may present a sharing panel 220 in the interface 200B, as shown in FIG2B .

[0039] In the sharing panel 220, the electronic device 110 may provide a sharing entry, such as a sharing entry 225. Such a sharing entry may include, for example, a target sharing entry 225 for supporting unedited forwarding. The present disclosure is not intended to limit the style or function of other sharing entries.

[0040] In some embodiments, after receiving a trigger operation on the target sharing portal 225 , the electronic device 110 may present an interface 200C as shown in FIG2C . The interface 200C may also correspond to a display interface of the target media content 210 .

[0041] As shown in Figure 2C, unlike interface 200A, interface 200C can further provide at least one status control 230. In some embodiments, the status control 230 can be used to characterize the generation status and / or publishing status of the target shared content. Taking Figure 2C as an example, the text "Forwarded" can indicate that the user has triggered the generation and forwarding process of the target shared content. It should be understood that the text "Forwarded" here is not intended to indicate that the corresponding target shared content has been completed and / or has been published.

[0042] In some embodiments, the triggering operation on the target sharing portal 225 can be used to trigger a content generation process for generating target sharing content. Such a content generation process can be executed locally on the electronic device 110 or on another electronic device (eg, the server 130).

[0043] Furthermore, the electronic device 110 can control the target shared content to be published based on the operation status of the status control 230 within a preset time. It is understood that the target shared content being published means that the target shared content is published as a user work, that is, the target shared content has been visible as a user work to the target user set set by the publisher when publishing.

[0044] In some embodiments, if a first preset operation associated with the status control 230 is detected within a preset time, the electronic device 110 may control the target shared content to be published accordingly. The operation associated with the status control 230 may include, for example, any appropriate operation received in the current interface when the status control 230 is presented, regardless of whether the operation is executed specifically for the status control 230.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first preset operation may include a preset operation that causes the display interface status control to stop being presented. For example, the first preset operation may be a switching operation for media content in a media content stream, where the target media content of the display interface is included in the target media content stream of the display interface, or the first preset operation of the display interface may be a jump operation to the personal homepage of the author of the target media content. In other embodiments, the current interface also includes a status control closing control or confirming publication, and the first preset operation may also be a triggering operation for closing the display interface status control or confirming publication control. After the first preset operation associated with the status control is detected within the preset time, the target shared work is published as a user work.

[0046] For example, if the user slides up or down to switch the browsed media content while the status control 230 is presented, the electronic device 110 can control the target shared content to be published accordingly. As another example, if the user slides down the status control 230 to close the control, the electronic device 110 can also control the target shared content to be published accordingly.

[0047] Additionally or alternatively, or if the second preset operation associated with the status control 230 is not detected within the preset time, the electronic device 110 may also control the target shared content to be published accordingly. In some embodiments, the second preset operation associated with the status control 230 may include an operation that causes the publishing process to be canceled. For example, if the user does not perform any operation within the preset time, the electronic device 110 may also automatically control the target shared content to be published accordingly. Alternatively, if the user does not perform a trigger operation for the revocation entry 234 as discussed below within the preset time, the electronic device 110 may also automatically control the target shared content to be published accordingly. When the above-mentioned second preset operation associated with the status control is detected within the preset time, the target shared work is published as a user work.

[0048] 2C , the status control 230 may include, for example, a cancel entry 234. Upon receiving a trigger operation for the cancel entry 234, the electronic device 110 may stop publishing the target shared content.

[0049] In some embodiments, the length of the preset time presented by the state control 230 may be, for example, a preset length. Alternatively, the length of the preset time presented by the state control 230 may also be determined based on the time length required for the content generation process to generate the target media content.

[0050] For example, if no preset operation is received within a preset time period after the status control 230 is presented, the electronic device 110 may stop presenting the status control 230 accordingly after the preset time period expires, to indicate that the corresponding target shared content is being published or has been published. As another example, the electronic device 110 may also change the display of the status control 230 to indicate the updated generation status and / or publication status of the target shared content, such as indicating that the corresponding target shared content is being generated, being published, or has been published.

[0051] The example of FIG2C shows an example of a single status control 230. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also provide multiple status controls. For example, an edit entry and / or an undo entry may be independently provided as additional status controls. Additionally, such additional status controls may also be configured with the same or different preset times.

[0052] As an example, the electronic device 110 may provide a first state control associated with a text prompt, a second state control corresponding to an undo entry, and a third state control corresponding to an edit entry. Such first state control, second state control, and third state control may also be associated with the same or different preset times.

[0053] For example, if the user does not perform a predetermined operation within the same preset time period, the three state controls may stop being presented simultaneously. Alternatively, if the user does not perform a predetermined operation within a first time period, the second state control and the third state control may stop being presented. Furthermore, if the user does not perform a predetermined operation within a longer second time period, the first state control may be further stopped from being presented.

[0054] 2D , the electronic device 110 may further present an interface element 240 and / or an interface element 245 for indicating the publishing progress of the target shared content. Such interface elements 240 and / or 245 may, for example, stop being presented or continue to be presented in response to the user switching to another interface (e.g., switching to browsing other media content).

[0055] After the target shared content is published, the current user and / or other appropriate users can view the target shared content, for example, through an electronic device. For example, the target shared content is published as a personal work of the current user, and supports other users to view the work on the current user's personal homepage. Figure 2E shows an example display interface 200E of the target shared content 250, such an example display interface 200E can be presented by, for example, the electronic device 110 or other appropriate electronic device.

[0056] As shown in Figure 2E, such target shared content 250 may include a first media screen 255, and such a first media screen 255 may be generated by applying a preset style to the second media screen 260 of the target media content 210. Such a preset style may, for example, correspond to one or more preset image processing schemes. Thus, the electronic device 110 may apply the corresponding one or more image processing schemes to the second media screen 260 to generate a new first media screen 255. For example, the size or shape of the second media screen may be adjusted. Thus, the first media screen 255 may present a screen style different from the second media screen 260 to indicate that it corresponds to the shared media content.

[0057] It is understood that the first media screen can be generated by combining the second media screen with preset visual elements, which can be determined based on the target media content. The preset visual elements can include at least one of video, image, and text. For example, the display layout, screen color, or other visual information of the generated first media screen 255 differs from the second media screen 260, making it easier for users to perceive that the work is a forwarded shared work. For example, such a preset style may include a picture-in-picture style. That is, the second media screen 260 of the target media content 210 can be reduced in size and set as a portion of the first media screen 255, rather than the entirety. In some embodiments, such a preset style may also include other appropriate styles. For example, the background of the first media screen 255 can be obtained based on the second media screen 260, and visual elements used as the background are generated using colors associated with the second media screen 260. The second media screen 260 and the preset visual elements are then superimposed on the background to obtain the first media screen 255.

[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG2E , the preset style may indicate that, in addition to the second media screen 260, the first media screen 250 may also include at least one visual element 265. Such at least one visual element 265 may be generated based on the target media content 210. For example, as shown in FIG2E , the visual element 265 may indicate information about the publisher of the target media content 210.

[0059] In other examples, the visual element 265 may also indicate other appropriate information of the target media content 210, examples of which may include but are not limited to: publishing time, browsing information, like information, comment information, favorite information, media content description information, etc. It should be understood that the generation and / or presentation of the target shared content should be based on the permission of the publisher of the target media content 210.

[0060] Based on this approach, embodiments of the present disclosure can control the sharing of target shared content based on a user's sharing request, independent of the user's editing operation. It should be understood that "independent of the user's editing operation" is intended to mean that the user does not need to enter the editing interface of the target shared content, that is, can quickly generate and publish the corresponding target shared content according to a preset style.

[0061] In some embodiments, considering that such quick sharing is independent of the user's editing operation, the electronic device 110 may also provide an editing entry for the published target shared content 250. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may provide a corresponding editing entry in the display interface of the published target shared content 250. It is understandable that the published target shared content includes media content that has been published as a user's work, that is, the target shared content is visible to the target user set set by the user when publishing. Exemplarily, the electronic device 110 may provide an editing entry for the published target shared content 250 on the user's personal homepage.

[0062] Furthermore, upon receiving an edit request for the published target shared content, the electronic device 110 may present an editing interface (also referred to as a second editing interface) for editing the published target shared content. In other words, the terminal device 110 may provide a "publish first, edit later" sharing logic, supporting users' rapid sharing and reducing their sharing costs.

[0063] In some embodiments, such an editing interface may include interface 200F as shown in Figure 2F. Such an editing interface may include, for example, supporting the user to modify the display style of the second media screen 260, modify at least one visual element 265 generated based on the target media content 210, and so on.

[0064] For example, as shown in FIG2F , the interface 200F may provide a set of controls 270. Such a set of controls 270 may include, for example, a first control for adding a new visual element (e.g., a sticker, text, etc.). Alternatively, such a set of controls 270 may also include, for example, a second control for changing a preset style applied to the second media screen 260. Additionally, the set of controls 270 may also include, for example, a third control for obtaining preset audio information, which is used to generate the target shared content 250 in combination with the target media content.

[0065] Additionally, the interface 200F may further include a publish control 275. After the user completes the editing operation, the user may trigger the publish control 275 to publish the new shared content generated based on the editing operation. Thus, the published target shared content may be replaced with the updated shared content.

[0066] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users to "post-edit" the shared content that has been published, thereby supporting users' free creation while ensuring sharing efficiency.

[0067] 2C , the state control 230 may further include an editing entry 232. Upon receiving a trigger operation for the editing entry 232, the electronic device 110 may present an editing interface (also referred to as a first editing interface).

[0068] The editing interface corresponding to edit entry 232 can be similar to interface 200F discussed with reference to FIG2F . However, the editing interface corresponding to edit entry 232 can be provided when the target shared content has not yet been published. Furthermore, the user can perform editing operations in the editing interface, or directly publish the content without performing any editing operations. Accordingly, the corresponding shared content can be published based on at least one operation in the editing interface.

[0069] For example, the electronic device 110 may receive at least one editing operation on the initial shared content via the first editing interface to generate updated shared content. For example, a user may perform at least one editing operation on the initial shared content via the first editing interface. Such initial shared content may be generated based on the target media content 210. In one example, the initial shared content may be in the same format as the target shared content 250.

[0070] Such editing operations may be similar to one or more operations performed using the editing controls discussed with reference to Figure 2F, such as adding new visual elements, modifying preset styles, obtaining new audio content, and the like.

[0071] Furthermore, the electronic device 110 may receive a publishing request for the updated shared content via the first editing interface, and control the updated shared content to be published accordingly.

[0072] Based on the above process, the embodiments of the present disclosure can provide users with the ability to directly share target media content without editing. In addition, in some embodiments, the ability to post-edit media content that has been triggered for publication can be provided to facilitate further editing by users. As a result, the embodiments of the present disclosure can enable users to more flexibly choose forwarding methods. For users who do not edit the target shared content, the forwarding path can be shortened, thereby improving the efficiency of user sharing. For users who wish to edit the target shared content, a quick editing entry is provided to facilitate editing the target shared content before publishing.

[0073] In some embodiments, in addition to the presentation logic of the target sharing portal 225 discussed above with reference to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B , embodiments of the present disclosure may also support initiating a sharing request for target media content based on other appropriate interaction processes.

[0074] Figure 3A shows an example interface 300A according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 3A, interface 300A may correspond to, for example, a display interface for target media content 210. As shown in Figure 3A, after receiving a preset operation (e.g., a long press operation) for the share control 215, the electronic device 110 may present a sharing entry, such as a target sharing entry 310. When the user triggers the target sharing entry 310, for example, interface 200C as discussed above with reference to Figure 2C may be triggered.

[0075] 3A , the target sharing entry 310 may be presented in the interface 300A in association with the sharing control 215 . For example, the target sharing entry 310 may be presented adjacent to the sharing control 215 .

[0076] In some embodiments, the sharing panel 220 shown in FIG2B and / or the target sharing entry 310 shown in FIG3B may also be presented in response to a user's preset operation on the target media content in the display interface. For example, the user may trigger the presentation of the sharing panel 220 shown in FIG2B and / or the target sharing entry 310 shown in FIG3B by long pressing the target media content 210 in the interface 200A.

[0077] In some other embodiments, the presentation of the target sharing portal may also be based on a specific user interaction operation on the target media content 210. Specifically, upon receiving a target interaction operation associated with the target media content, the electronic device 110 may present the target sharing portal in the display interface of the target media content.

[0078] In one example, as shown in FIG3B , after the user triggers the like control 315 in the interface 300B to complete the like operation, the electronic device 110 may, for example, present a target sharing entry 325 in the interface 300B. When the user triggers the target sharing entry 325, for example, the interface 200C discussed above with reference to FIG2C may be triggered.

[0079] 3B , the target sharing entry 325 may include a sharing tag, which may be displayed in the description area 320 of the display interface 300B. The description area 320 may be used to display description information associated with the target media content 210, such as publisher information and content description information added by the publisher.

[0080] In another example, as shown in FIG3C , after the user triggers the like control 315 in interface 300C to complete the like operation, the electronic device 110 may, for example, present a target sharing entry 330 in interface 300B.
